Move of the Week

Week 55

This week we look at a great combination move by
the Aussies in which Loti Tuqiri scores a great try.
The three moves that made up the combination
move are the drifting center switch; the single dummy
runner and the inside pass to the blindside wing.

" This is the kind of move coaches will see more and more as we
get closer to the World Cup, because this combination of moves
must work against modern defenses."
- Jan Oberholzer

Lets look closely at the combination move.
